i have no idea if this is funny to anyone else but the other night i had
a dream that i was watching some weird TOP TEN WEIRDEST WEAPONS thing
and for #1 they showed like a bunch of .50 cal snipers progressively
longer than the last until the last one was like a mile long like
also the barrel was so long that when you looked through the scope, you
could literally only see to exactly where the barrel ended, and that
made me laugh so hard that i woke up
here’re some things i keep in mind when drawing steven’s body type, if anyone finds them helpful! SU is the perfect opportunity to learn draw body types that aren’t well represented in media for me and i’m SO grateful.
these are kinda vague as far as helpful art tips go but they genuinely help me remember.
“You must never give in to despair. Allow yourself to slip down that road and you surrender to your lowest instincts. In the darkest times, hope is something you give yourself. That is the meaning of inner strength.”
“But [Tumblr’s] value, of course, is more than just what it isn’t, and what it points away from. Despite all the drama and discourse lurking in its corners, it’s easy to make your own Tumblr life as simple and as happy as you want it to be. There are no algorithmic threats lurking around every corner, no onslaught of promoted posts from politicians or influencers. More than anything else, Tumblr in 2020 is a self-sustaining ecosystem. It’s a semi-sealed and increasingly fertile terrarium, a nigh-impossible perpetual-motion machine of a platform going productively psychotic in its isolation.”
Wait a minute. I sound like a guy. A really buff guy. Well, Toph, what you hear up there is the truth. It hurts, doesn’t it? Are you kidding me? I wouldn’t have cast it any other way!
This is the level of hyperanalystic bullshit I live for
not so fast, in the review of gusteau’s anton ego compares gusteau to chef boyardee or hector boiardi with a tone implying that boyardee is dead and in history
given that gusteau died shortly after this and the will takes 2 years after death
assuming that ego’s review was the same year that boiardi died then the absolute EARLIEST the movie can take place is 1987
and about the incredibles, when looking for the scene with the newspaper i stumbled across this
a headline from 2002, and given that lawsuits generally take a while and september to december is really quick for the banning of supers so let’s say they were banned in mid 2003, at the EARLIEST incredibles can take place in 2018, with ratatouille taking place sometime in between 2003 and 2018
assuming that was a mistake, thunderhead died november 15 1958, a date where superheroes would’ve been illegal if incredibles 1 took place in 1962
and adding onto the impossibility of the date being 1962 his death is included in the shutdown reports of the national supers agency
so the year in which the movies take place is impossible to find because the staff of the incredibles couldn’t chose a date and commit to it
I take it back
This is the level of hyperanalystic bullshit I live for
IS NO ONE GONNA MENTION THAT THUNDERHEAD IS GAY?!?!
OMG OMG OMG

this tweet goes from surreal to hilarious when you realize that she was the CEO of Reddit
Casual reminder that while she was CEO at Reddit she created a salary negotiation policy that evened the playing field for women employed by Reddit.
Not-at-all-casual-reminder that she left Reddit in 2015 after being forced to resign because Reddit lost its collective shit at her when the site banned 5 subreddits for harassment; not-at-fucking-all casual reminder that Ellen Pao was the CEO of Reddit when it banned revenge porn after The Fappening.
One of the subreddits that was banned that led to her resignation was r/fatpeople hate. The others were transphobic and racist.
In her time at Reddit Pao did more than the site had ever before done to fight harassment from its user base and for that someone started a subreddit calling for her firing and trying to make nazi and ISIS imagery come up in searches associated with her name.
If *anyone* in the tech industry knows what the blackpill subculture is like and how vile and toxic groups spawned in subreddits can be it’s Ellen Pao.
This isn’t someone who’s oblivious to the fact that her former company is a source of the problem, this is someone who is speaking from personal experience with online harassment campaigns orchestrated by people who want the freedom to post celebrity nudes who were *enraged* that she made it harder for them to do so.
(also basically the rest of her twitter is about #metoo, the need for labor regulation and worker protections, and salary transparency so maybe go check her out)
